All persons doing Esto work may only use the title “ESTO I/T” (In Training) until they have successfully and honestly completed:
1. HCO B 21 Nov 73, “The Cure of Q and A”
2. The PRD. (Primary Rundown.)
3. The OEC.
4. The Esto Series.
5. Have shown on post the ability to see situations and handle them terminatedly.
6. Get staff members actually producing by increased stats.
Any reasons for failure of the Esto system anywhere have derived from (a) A dishonest “completion” of the PRD and (b) Qing and Aing instead of seeing and handling situations terminatedly.
An Esto must be at CAUSE.
